Oh, this is a story 'bout a guy named AlAnd he lived in a sewer with his hamster palBut the sanitation workers really didn't approveSo he packed up his accordion and had to moveTo a city in Ohio where he lived in a treeAnd he worked in a nasal decongestant factoryAnd he played on the company bowling teamAnd every single night he had a strange, recurring dreamWhere he was wearing leiderhosen in a vat of sour creamBut that's really not important to the story

Well, the very next year he met a dental hygenistWith a spatula tattoed on her arm (on her arm)But he didn't keep in touch, then he lost her numberThen he got himself a job on a tater tot farmAnd he spent his life savings on a split-level cave20 miles below the surface of the Earth (of the Earth)And he really makes a mighty fine jelly bean and pickle sandwichFor what it's worth

Then one day Al was in the forest, trying to get a tanWhen he heard the tortured screaming of a funny little manHe was caught in a bear trap and Al set him freeAnd the guy that he rescued was as grateful as can beAnd it turns out he's a big-shot producer on TVSo he gave Al a contract and what do you know?Now he's got his own very Weird Al Show!
